After picking stocks, students from Cumberland Middle School Quest took second place in the Fall semester of The Stock Market Game program’s online portfolio simulation. The team, named “Show me the Money”, competed in the Grades 4-8 level in their geographic region. Competition between student teams throughout Illinois drew to a close at the end of the Fall session with the highest valued portfolios receiving awards.

The winning student team includes Eva Bledsaw, Rylan James, Kallie Finn, and Paige Dittamore. Mrs. Carr and her winning team were recognized with medals and certificates. The team increased their original $100,000 cash to a final portfolio equity of $105,144.02.
